Things Hubby Introduced Me To
What a different person I'd be if I hadn't met my husband!
(Take a look at those pretty blues in this photo - ahem, and his picture trademark, the ridiculously false smile. You should see our wedding pictures! RME)
Check out the list of things he introduced me to; keeping in mind that these are things he had already experienced before he introduced them to me, not things we experienced for the first time together (yes, I was pretty sheltered):
Movies:Casablanca, Heat, Swimming with Sharks, A Fish Called Wanda, Monty Python and the Holy Grail (I'm sure there's more but that's all I can think of right now)
Activities:Snowboarding, Softball, and World of Warcraft (although that one didn't last very long, poor Flad)
Food:Thai, Indian, Sushi (well, my bro first introduced me to it, but Craig really made me experience it) and Brie Cheese (I don't think he knows that one)
Places:San Francisco, Mammoth, Las Vegas and Chicago
Life Changes: Being his wife (okay - this one we experienced together, but I had to list it), being a homeowner, and most importantly...
being a BMW owner (lol).
I love you, honey!
Blogging
So, I told a friend of mine and hubby's that I had started a blog. When I said that it's still coming along, he compared blogging to tending a garden...it takes a lot of work to get it to blossom. How funny, I had no idea how right he was! I think I've changed the layout, format, pictures, and words at least 10 times (I've only had my blog for about 5 days now).
Shout Out
A big shout out to the people who contributed to my Humane Society fund raising efforts. I had to raise my goal because your contributions exceeded my original one:
Mom; Mikey and Craig; Matt, Andrea, Tony, Kalia and Madison; The Gristina Family; The Kennerly Family; Heather; Jinx; Christina, Miguel, Carlos, Alexis, et al; Kevin, Megan, Del, Fish, Flea, and Flo; Obie
Thanks so much for your help!
My time with BA
So, here's a quick synopsis of my short time with Barratt:
First day, meet Ashley. 3rd day, Ashley has a baby and leaves me for a few months. I get Jen set up with Gmail chat. I get to talk to Kelly twice before she leaves (but fortunately I'm cool enough to go to dinner every month - Yay!!!). We have our Christmas party. Lots of people get layed off. Ashley comes back. Hilary gives me my new name badge and I lose it 5 minutes later. More people get let go. We have to clean models and water the plants now. More people get let go (including Hilary - good day for her, sad day for us) and I get "Not Technically" layed off. I find a new job. :D
Our name
Why is it when people ask me how I pronounce my last name I say "Byu-cha-lye" and they say "BOO-cha-lye"?
How Nikki got her name
The first time I held Nikki, she fell asleep with one eye open. It reminded me of a spy, very cautious - like she didn't quite trust me. Although I've never actually seen the show, I could only think of La Femme Nikkita - so Nikkita she became.
My mother-in-law is the best!
So, a couple of weeks ago hubby and I went out to dinner with my Mother-in-Law. I called her a Bitch and she called me a Whore. Good times. (I love you Jan!)
